very good.

I love the way you portrayed their life and thought.
It's so sweet, impressive and touching!
I really feel happy for the couple. They are incredibly adorable! LOVE them!
Keep up the great job. Thank you! :D

{(it was times like those where he would love to pretend to sleep so that she could watch him, but he knew she would kill him if she ever found that out, so he eventually stopped doing it).} LOL! Cheating, but I *so* love it!


{she would sometimes sit and stare at the room he was in and give a hesitant wave...he loved that she gained that instinct.} Oh my gosh, I have fallen in love…


{His other arm shifted across her belly to bring her even closer. Seeing her in this moment, clothed only in moonlight and ardent kisses, made him wonder how he lived a moment without her.} *tear*


{But that’s the point of love. Discovering your better half, and igniting the desire to keep the other as safe and protected as possible, not because it’s expected of you, but because you want to.} AMEN!


{the term “better half” was usually used to describe ones soul mate} *plays with lip then points*


{So when Jason had revealed one morning that he had never had a “good Midwestern breakfast”} That’s a shame…


{setting Jason on the counter and grinning when he son} Ahem…


{started kicking his legs back and forth.} Ah, the days of youth. Is he kicking the cabinets too? So much fun when you’re doing it, but SO annoying when it’s your younger brother…


{Jason’s hair, sticking up in every direction on one side, matted to his head on the other} lol That boy is too cute.


{Clark paused with a hand on the refrigerator door.} *hugs the details*


{including heat-and-eat bags of his macrobiotic milkshakes.} To echo Jason, blech…


{“Oh.” Clark stared for a moment at the frozen contents.} Frightening isn’t it?


{“Lotsa fruit and green stuff.”} Fruit is awesome!


{“Daddy cooked all the time. Mommy used the microwave a lot.”} ROFLMBO! Out of the mouth of babes…


{He pulled out a loaf of bread.} Finally, someone else who keeps bread in the fridge! Makes more sense to me…


{“Well, no more, little guy! If you grow up to be anything like me – and those chances seem kinda high} hehe I can’t wait to see him as a daddy. If we ever get to *see* the next one…


{“I can’t eat bread.”} That should be a sin. If it weren’t so deadly that he could I mean. Whatever. *moves on*


{Hesitantly, Jason took the bread and nibbled a small corner off the crust.} Delicious isn’t it?


Bologna’s gross! And only I would find it funny that you used ‘baloney’ and ‘balogna’ in the same story. *giggle*


I love this lil daddy scientist thing. Trial and error. Testing the waters. Feeling the throttle. I got nothing else…


{Making sure he told Jason every detail of preparing their breakfast} lol That way he can remember and make some for Lois. If she ever decides she wants to eat it…


{Clark took in Jason’s excited bounces, they way he observed everything with rapt attention, how his feet continued to swing from the countertop.} Hey, let him help.


{Every now and then, his fingers would play with the sleeve of his Aquaman pajamas.} I see I’m not the only one who picked up on that.


{Jason waited patiently while Clark cut his bread into smaller pieces.} Aww, what are daddies for?


{Clark took another drink of his milk, wishing he had gotten a bigger glass.} Ah. Nothing like a tall, cold glass of milk to go with your French toast, pancakes, or waffles.


{“I will say this, though,” he said, taking another bite and pausing when he tasted the soy before anything else. “I can’t wait until you can drink regular milk.”} ROFLMBO!! I’ve only had soy once. Nuff said. Though I wouldn’t mind trying it again…


{Every now and then, he and Lois would have heated discussions, oftentimes arguments, about how they both needed to rely on each other to make their crazy lives work.} Expected and necessary.


{he thought one day, staring with a smile as she helped Jason with his homework,} There he goes again. *grin*


{I left a woman with a broken heart and returned to a strong mother whose passion was tenfold.} Like it should be.


{when her knees and back would be sore from sitting all night and he would rub the aching muscles until her small whimpers subsided.} I want a massage…


{Other days, forgoing his hunger and too tempted to resist the idea of simply laying beside her, he would slip off his shoes and gently ease himself onto the bed…easing her into a deeper sleep than before.} *mouth hangs open in total adoration*


{to finally experience what they had, to know what it was like to raise a family, somehow made it… complete.} Now that produced a very nice image…


{He couldn’t help it when his eyes drifted to the book instead of his son’s worksheet – seeing it done for the fifth time was getting a little old} lol Been there, done that.


{a person or people related to one and so to be treated with a special loyalty or intimacy}I’m gonna say ‘aww’ again.


{Family were to be treated with a special loyalty} Were? Ignore me. It’s like a drug, I swear…


{How fortunate was he that the number had grown from one to three?} I love that, and not just because it rhymes, lol


{his true home…was cuddled beside him on the couch at the end of a long day, seated together at the dinner table…} *clutches chest* Ah, you…


{even a ballgame in the summer (though one particular member never indulged in that particular tradition)} Gee, I wonder who that was…


{they were always there.
Waiting for him.
Watching for him.} How many times do I have to clutch my heart?


{Hiswedding.} Yeah…drug.


{He must have looked lost, sitting there on their bed still wearing his suit and glasses from earlier that day, but he couldn’t move if he wanted to. How did he become so fortunate to live his dream?} VISUAL! And it’s funnier than I meant it to be. Cuz he doesn’t look lost, he’s got that face on that he had when Lois said she’d done Superman. And he’s got the grey suit on. I prefer the brown one myself…oh right. Story. Back to it…


{He nearly sighed in satisfaction when she stood next to him, running a hand comfortingly through his hair. At last he broke his gaze with the photo and turned his head to nuzzle his face against her side. “I’m just very… content.”} AWW! AND VISUALS!!


{“Content, huh? After this morning?”} heh


{ “I’ll tell you later.”} Why not tell her now?


{“Speak for yourself,” he tossed over his shoulder, twisting his fingers through the knot of his tie. He was rewarded with a pillow to his back.} I SO wanna film this story! I don’t think I’ve had so many visualizations of shots of different scenes in my head EVER.


{“That’s part of my charm, though,”} Wouldn’t that be *his* charm? Lest, I be confused. Forget it. I’ll figure it out. I am definitely reading this again. I’m gonna save it like the other 5.


{He stood and tugged open his dress shirt, showing off the S-shield for emphasis.} Silly.


{seconds later clothed in pajama bottoms.} *sigh*


{“All the time. It’s sitting there right next to the door. You’d have to be blind to miss it.} Well, that’s just the most obvious answer.,,


{But you always look so… thoughtful.} Shouldn’t he be?


{“Youguess so?”} lol I love them. *says nothing else*


{“What’s that supposed to mean?”
The small smile became a sly grin. “I’ll tell you later.”} HA!


{The gleam changed to pure surprise and she let out a small shriek of laughter. “No! You’ll never get answers outta me that way!”} Tickle monster!! So cute!


{Clark watched amused as she struggled against his hand, eventually resorting to flapping her elbows} lol Flapping elbows. That’s just funny put together.


{“Of course. But I have an advantage that Jason doesn’t.”} More cheating!


{Then he leaned over and kissed her deeply, putting his heart and soul into the kiss, intending to tell her without words just how much she meant to him.} AW! *heart melts*


{“I’m still not telling you. I’m an impenetrable Fort Knox.”} heh So you say…


{Smiling, he released her hands and reveled in her smile, the glowing light in her eyes, and the wondrous feeling of her hands traveling up his back. He bent over and brought his lips as close to hers as possible. “We’ll see about that.”} SQUEE! That was a lovely, heartwarming, adorable read! I can truly go to bed happy! They’re happy and in love and oh, just so very very good. You should be proud. I’m sure you are. Just, oh!


*hugs you* Thanks for writing this and sharing it with us. Beautiful. Just beautiful. You get a standing ovation too.

{This is to reassure you all that I am, in fact, NOT dead and still writing} Well I knew you weren't dead, but I'm glad you're still writing! And yay, more Underground!


{Every now and then…she would watch him sleep.} AW!! I can’t seem to get away from those nowadays…


{Of course, being married} YAY! They’re married!!


{Lois only recently discovered that her silent musings were only possible when he came to bed after a particularly tiring evening.} Why do I find her watching him sexy? Maybe it’s the image in my head. She’s softly smiling at him…


{he came back earlier than anticipated, giving them few precious hours alone to be themselves} SQUEE!


{but for now… she watched} GAH! That is so romantic…


{And discovered, with mute fascination, that he slept like Jason} hehe Cute.


{she reached out and slowly moved the switch until the alarm was shut off.} I thought she was gonna change the time the alarm was supposed to go off. Your idea makes better sense, lol


{Moving a bit closer, shifting her foot between his ankles and clothed calves,} DETAILS!! I love them. Details I mean.


{Yup. He sleeps exactly like Jason…} LOL


{“It’s time to get up.”} *groans* Why? What time is it?


{And you know what the office will say.”} lol I think I know…


{“What are you, twelve years old?” … } ROFL Lois Lane in action!


{“What?” he croaked. “No good morning kiss?”
She promptly hit him again.} *sigh* Romantic and funny. It’s like McDonald’s; I’m loving it! Okay, that was corny, but still…


{which, for Lois, meant a heaping of carbs and wasted time she could have used getting the better angle on a story.} lol Well, the girl’s got a point. Though she *could* eat on the run…


{On any morning where she wouldn’t eat with them, he’d arrive at the office with her favorite coffee and a muffin} GAH! He’s like the best husband EVER!


{trying desperately to balance the two and walk at the same time} hehe


{he dropped off the coffee and muffin while kissing her on the head (and not spilling a single drop)} Awesome.


lol Clark can be so anal at times. But oh! Him gazing at the photo! *clutches heart* I just want to eat him up!


{she remembered a video had been made, by Richard, of the historical event in their son’s life.} D’oh! You beat me to it! I still like you though. ;)


{He almost seemed nervous when she pulled out the ancient VHS and popped it into the equally ancient VCR, but all of it melted away almost instantly as Jason’s chubby face filled the TV screen.} And *that’s* when the tears started…


{She had expected a retort of some kind.} Our good man wouldn’t even care.


{He hadn’t worn his glasses to dinner that evening… she couldn’t believe how complete the picture was before her.} LOVE THAT WHOLE PARAGRAPH!!


{Clark was completely motionless, was barely breathing as he stared at his son’s face. A smile would occasionally break the hypnotic gaze spell he had cast over her, but the utter depth of his love remained in his eyes.} *wipes her face*


{He had taken home the tape that night.} AW!!


{Her thoughts interrupted by his eyes glancing up at her,} Oh, wow. You had me so mesmerized by that last part that I forgot it was a flashback!


{the minor thought that she had never seen that video again drifted away} lol And she does lover her man.


{“You were reminiscing, I see,” she whispered. “I love watching you reminisce. It’s like reading a book.”} *squeak* I love this dialogue!


She made another look over her shoulder at him. He didn’t look back, but the telltale smile told her everything she needed to know.


{She knew that Clark would be there in a heartbeat if he wanted to.} Or needed to.


{her chasing a story and him chasing robbers or a collapsing building} lol Chasing a collapsing building, lol, now there’s a funny image.


{to do anything other than sit and watch Jason do homework.} And that’s quite all right. I bet they’re just thankful that they can watch him together.


{Smaller things made up the core of the relationship. They just happened to be one of the couples that missed out on it.} Oh, Lois. *hugs her*


Why is Lois cooking? lol


{she looked out of the corner of her eye and noticed Clark leaning against the kitchen counter, occasionally popping baby carrots into his mouth.} Ah, visuals. That was a nice zoom in my mental picture too.


{He was staring straight at her, but when she turned to look at him, he went back to his duty of gathering veggie snacks for Jason.} lol


{“Nothing. I was just… thinking.”} Thinking what?


{“You’ve been staring at me since I started cooking the beef.”} Maybe he likes to watch you cook.


{“You mean burning it?”} ROFL!! Now *that’s* a burn…


Love this banter!


{“It’s habit, isn’t it?”} Aw!!


{As far as I’m concerned, when we’re at home, I’m yours.”} WhoWHO!!


{he stood straight and leaned against the counter behind him} I love the idea of him just hanging out with her in the kitchen. Yeah he was actually doing something, but still…


{before he left the kitchen, he dropped a kiss on the back of her head} For some reason, I kept reading that as ‘neck’. Hm…either way, still a sweet moment.


{she encouraged him to do the little things, eventually promising him many good things if he would get in the habit of openly admiring her. He took to it quickly} I bet he did. He’s a man in love.


{Whether or not it had anything to do with her demands, she wasn’t sure, but she liked to think that it did.} Aww…


{Lois couldn’t let him think he had complete control over her.} lol They both know the other has complete control over them.


{It never took her long to realize the thought was total baloney. Love might have been patient and kind, but those two words never fit easily with her personality.} LOL!


{Life sometimes seemed easier if they weren’t a couple.} No, it’d be even harder.


{he was going to miss some important events in his sons life.} *points*


{She had to remind him that was what video cameras were for.} *whines* But it’s not the same!


{I deny his suspicions of my snoring. No way.} lol ‘Til the day you die.


{It was hard enough to keep the weight of the world off his shoulders, but she could let the home be his haven} Aw


{Lovemaking with Clark, past and present, had always left Lois at a loss for words.
Then again, it also did Clark.} Hey, what *can* you say after that?

i like it. What would Clark do if Jason had an alergic reaction though?

Great chapter.

Really nice and sweet.

this one is good as well

Thrilled about a new story

WOW!

*Giggles* Aww.. Loved this. Can't wait for more!

Yay! She lives! Loving this!

“What?” he croaked. “No good morning kiss?”

She promptly hit him again.

Who *wouldn't* want to kiss him?
